Abstract

Historical costume not only offers a rich source of inspiration for contemporary fashion designers, but also provides important area of research for sociologists, anthropologists and historians. This article analyzed European men's suit from 1850s to 1920s from written sources and real historical prototypes and investigated how the historical garments were worn layer by layer. This investigation could help to understand the historical methods of pattern block drafting, suit shaping during sewing, which will be applicable in high-precision reconstruction of men costume in virtual reality for online museum.
